"4: We! Are! Your! Friends! But only if we know you first. So before you click that Add Friend link on some random person's profile, remember this very important thing:
Would you be friends with some loon that walks up to you in the street and yells "HEY, WANNA BE BESTEST FRIENDS FOREVER?!!!!1!11?????"
Exactly."

Regarding this, not only would relatively newer people such as myself feel discouraged from "friending" others, those who've been here for a longer time would not "friend" the new people. Because the comparison cited above sounds discouraging--none of us would like to be considered "some loon."

So how do people here (other than those who've already come in bringing friends with them, or already know people here) make friends?

Feel free to "friend" me. I promise you I won't think you're a "Loon."

Sure God created Man before Woman--but don't you always make a rough draft--before the final masterpiece?
